About this listen

Harnessing the power in her blood could turn the tides of war—if it doesn’t destroy her first.

It’s been fourteen years since Prince Gaeren lost Aeliana, the childhood friend he’d sworn to protect. Haunted by the unfulfilled promise, he searches for a way to bring her home. But with threats against the kingdom from both a rebel faction in the south and Mayvus, a power-hungry priestess in the east, he only has time to follow one last clue across the seas.

Kidnapped as a child, Aeliana is desperate to be rid of the chaotic magic in her blood, magic her captors use to ravage the land. When she’s found by Gaeren’s rebel enemies, she joins their fight to rescue her mother from Mayvus, but her unwieldy power only serves to attract Mayvus' attention. Aeliana must learn to control her magic before they reach her mother, or risk becoming the weapon Mayvus needs to take complete control of the kingdom.

Blood of the Stars is the first book in an epic fantasy series full of magic, intrigue, found family, reluctant royalty, & descendants of Stars on the brink of war.

Well-developed Story

The story is intricate and well-thought out. I was captivated by the adventure, but I found the MC a bit too introspective sometimes, especially when it was action time. When she’s facing a life or death situation and needs to decide quickly, the suddenly too-long doubt sequence really takes me out of it. The narration was fine, with good voice regulation and volume, but without adaptability for the excitement level of the story, it sounds flat sometimes. The male narrator has less of an issue with this. But all around, it was an enjoyable YA listen.
